> will it be Seroquel IR then when i cut the Seroquel XR 200 mg pill in half?What on earth is the purpose of taking Seroquel XR, which is basically a patent extension, but maybe someone responds to it, and cutting it ?
Sorry to sound harsh but I don't understand why people want to cut extended release medication.
It could be Seroquel anything, there's no way of knowing, yes, best guess it would be Seroquel IR, but the plasma level could be all over the place.
The original Seroquel has already been proven to be effective as a single dose at night, regardless of its 6 hour half life, it is the plasma life.
